In Pupillin, the self-proclaimed World Capital of Ploussard, Benjamin Benoit has quickly become a name to watch. After training under some of Burgundy’s most revered winemakers, fate called him home earlier than expected. His father passed away unexpectedly, and at just 23, he took the reins of his family's domaine. What he has achieved in just a few vintages is nothing short of extraordinary.

Benoit’s wines are pure Jura, forged through devotion—thoughtful vineyard work, no shortcuts, and an obsession with translating each site under vine individually. He bottles ploussard and chardonnay from distinct lieux-dits, highlighting the terroir’s remarkable depth. These are wines made with intuition, patience, and a deep respect for the land. Highly respected and deeply expressive, they are a must for lovers of Jura’s finest.

Melon à Queue Rouge is a rare, deeply rooted Jura chardonnay biotype, named for its distinctive red stems. This cuvée pays homage to old vines first planted in 1938, showcasing Jura’s winemaking history in its purest form. A wine that feels like a direct line to the past, crafted with the precision and restraint that defines Benoit’s work.
